Charles and I used to hang out all the time , together with a few other guys , but he seemed too cool
for us lately . We couldn't understand the
1 , and we didn't ask him for an explanation .
2 , we
decided to
3 him a lesson in the way he treated us .
Once we started giving Charles the
4 shoulder , almost everybody was taking no notice of him . He
looked so
5 , especially at lunchtime when he sat alone in the cafeteria . Now and then he nodded and
said , "Hey!" when
6 passed his table , but all he got
7 return were mean looks and silence .
At first I was glad my plan had
8 , but Charles' unhappiness made me upset . I only wanted him to
know

10 him .

11 as Charles repeatedly glanced at his watch , obviously
12 the
minutes until he could leave the cafeteria . I suddenly realized I had done wrong .

13 , clearly wanting to avoid eye contact .

"I'm so sorry ,

"What?" he nearly shouted , looking much
15 . "I've left you alone because I thought that was what
you wanted."
"Oh, my God ! Why would I want
16 ?" I shouted , completely puzzled .
Clearly , we both had been
17 each other wrong .
At first Charles couldn't accept my
18 . I knew he needed time to
19 all the hurt I'd caused him .
But eventually , he did forgive me . We even started hanging out together
20 . And our friendship
wasn't destroyed at all .
